The window seat series
No full textThe Window Seat Series is a completed set of 24 photomontage images depicting a personal travel across North America between 2000 and 2001. The Avram Gallery is an established venue on Long Island, New York, and has exhibited works in previous exhibitions of artists such as Larry Rivers, de Kooning, Roy Nicholson, Eric Fishel and Willie Cole. The gallery is an established part of the New York 'East End' ( the Long Island artists community) scene It was from this initial exhibition of The Window Seat series at the Avram Gallery, New York, 2002, that I was able to substantiate a successful application for a major Pollock/Krasner grant in 2002. The Pollock/Krasner Foundation Grant is one of the most respected international art awards available to individual artists and is specific in its criteria and application procedure. 'The Window Seat' exhibition was reviewed, and illustrated in colour in the 'New York Times' (under the heading "David Ferry, a tourist who seeks sensations not sights") by one of their senior critics, Helen Harrison on 24th November 2001, the exhibition also attracted reviews and pictures in the 'Southampton Press' of Long Island and the 'East Hampton Star' also from Long Island. This exhibition attracted direct funding from Long Island University (Southampton College) and was also awarded a 'John P Magrath Exhibition Award' from The Avram Family Foundation of Long Island University. On reading the review in the New York Times the New York curator Catherine Bernard invited me to exhibit at the Amiellie Wallace Gallery at the University of New York's campus at Old Westbury, also on Long Island. This venue is again influential in its back catalogue of exhibitions of the New York Scene. Dr Catherine Bernard studied at the Sorbonne in Paris and is a respected curator and critic and a contributor to Freeze and Parket magazine. I was awarded funds from the Amiellie Wallice Foundation Exhibition Award from SUNY, at Old Westbury New York, for this exhibition renamed 'Montage Projects' in 2003. Four images from this same series were exhibited at the Crawford Municipal Art Gallery in Cork, Ireland, as part of the internationally juried 'Crawford Open' Exhibition in 2002 curated by Dawn Williams and selected by jury, Valerie Byrne, Anne Tallentire, and Suzanne Woods, Director of the Model Arts & Niland Gallery, Sligo. Other exhibiting artists included Deirdre Power, Sarah Iremonger, and Mary Kelly. The Crawford Open Exhibition is one of the leading contemporary art exhibitions on the Irish scene. The publication 'Crawford Open 1-4' was published by Gandon Editions (a leading Dublin based publishing house) in 2003. ISBN 0946846855. I have a citation and images in this publication on page 20 and 110-111, (of 288 pages) in an essay by Peter Murray titled 'Through the Lens'. I was invited to lecture at both the National College of Art and Design in Dublin and the Crawford College of Art and Design in Cork as a result of this exhibition. Reviews of this exhibition as a whole were made in the Irish Times and many Cork based publications and listings. The complete set of images from the 'Window Seat' series were reproduced in the limited edition catalogue/artists book 'Views from the Window Seat' published by the Avram Gallery, New York and supported by the Arts and Humanities Research Board. The essay in the publication 'Long Island Ferry' was written by Bernard Sharratt (former Professor of Image and Communication Studies at University of Kent at Canterbury, and now a reviewer for the New York Review of Books). The design for this publication was by the British designer and curator John Gillett, Director of The Winchester Gallery, UK. This catalogue/Artists book is in the book arts collection of The Crawford College of Art Design, Ireland, and is marketed in the UK by The 'Bookarts Bookshop' in Hoxton Square, London, (a leading edge book arts venue and distribution outlet). It was also included in the publication 'Artist Book Year Book' published by Impact Press UK. Page 186 of 220. ISBN 0953607690. The Window Seat series was further exhibited in 2004 in an exhibition titled 'Double Gaze' at the 'Gallery ON' venue in Poland. This was a two person exhibition with the Polish/British film maker George Saxon. The exhibition was curated by Dr Joanna Hoffmann from the ON Gallery and the Academy of Fine Arts in Poznan. A record of the exhibition was published in 'ON Gallery 25 Year Anniversary Catalogue' Edited by Slawek Sobczak. Published in 2005 by Fundacua Akademii Sztuk W Pieknych W Poznan.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
